Detailed Description

Balancing the platform.

This script incorperates the drivers developed for the balancing platform's motors, encoders, and resistive touch panel. A controller uses the functions developed in the drivers to collect potentiometer and touch panel readings. These readings inform motor torque and duty cycle calculations to level the platform and center the object placed atop the tilt table.
